WORKING WITH MULTIPLE TOOLS

The Wacom Tablet control panel is designed to help you customize and keep track of the settings for your tablet and Intuos pro tools. The tool you use to open the control panel is automatically selected, and the appropriate tabs for that tool are displayed.

The TOOL list displays an icon for the tablet FUNCTIONS and different tools that have been used on the tablet.

The TOUCH icon is available for touch-sensitive tablets. See Setting the touch options.

If application-specific settings have not been added, the ALL icon is displayed and the tool settings apply to all applications.

Select a tool to change its settings.

Removes the selected tool. The button is inactive when there is only one item in the list. The FUNCTIONS and TOUCH icons cannot be deleted.

To add a different tool to the TOOL list, simply use the tool on your Intuos pro tablet.

•When you select a tool that has been added to the TOOL list, the appropriate tab settings for that tool are displayed. Any changes you make to the tab settings will then apply to the tool.

•If a similar tool was previously added, the new tool will inherit the settings of the previously added tool. These settings can then be customized for the newly added tool. Identical tools will use the same settings.

To remove a selected tool from the TOOL list, click on the TOOL list [ – ] button. In the dialog box that appears, click DELETE to confirm your selection. The selected tool is removed from the list, along with any custom settings you may have created for it. A removed tool can be added back to the TOOL list by placing it back onto the tablet.

CHANGING THE TABLET MODE

Intuos pro is configured for optimum performance in most applications. However, some handwriting recognition software requires a higher data rate than is typically needed for most applications. This higher data rate can slow computer performance in some circumstances. If your recognition software does not work well, you can change the tablet mode from standard to recognition mode.

Within the control panel TABLET list, double-click on the tablet icon. The TABLET MODE settings apply to all tools and applications.

If desired, enter a new name for the tablet icon.

STANDARD MODE is recommended for graphics applications.

Choose RECOGNITION MODE for the maximum data rate. Required by some handwriting recognition software.
